How Cher’s $2,000 Dress Took Over 1975 Television

Did you know in 1975, over thirty million people tuned in every week just to see what Cher was wearing? It was not just about the clothes, though they were made of beads and feathers that cost a fortune. It was about the courage to stand alone on a stage after a very public breakup. 

Cher did not just survive her split from Sonny Bono; she took over the entire television world. You need to see this short clip to understand how she commanded the room with nothing but a microphone and a Bob Mackie gown.
